They have a net benefit on the lives of citizens that live in countries that make the rules. There isn’t one specific example, it’s the sheer amount, and in some cases the stupidity, that are problematic. Sure we all want to live in a utopia but at the moment that utopia is causing mass displacement of economic refugees from east and south europe to nw europe and a constant reliance on eu funding, while the industrial base of those parts of europe has to constantly adapt to new legislation made in countries that already meet the requirements. And this constant game of catching up is in my view intentional protectionism.
